I would like to introduce myself. My name is Gaurav Mantri & I am founder of Cerebrata Software, an ISV based out of Udaipur, Rajasthan India.

Since you are the administrator of this forum, I think I should seek your permission to leave some comments for the users on this forum (and it won't be makemoneywith-google.com kind of messages :)).

Basically we have a product called Cloud Storage Studio which is a WPF application to manage your Azure Storage (Tables, Containers, Queues). What I want to do is to let the community members know about this product by posting comments in their profile. Please do let me know if this is appropriate.

Actually I did send out this message already to about 50 - 60 members who are from India and then I realized I should have asked you first. That's why this message.

I am copying the content of my message below. Please do let me know if it is appropriate and I will proceed accordingly.

Looking forward to hear back from you.

Thanks

Hi,

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Gaurav Mantri & I am founder of Cerebrata Software, an ISV based out of Udaipur, Rajasthan India. Since you are using Windows Azure, I thought I would bring one of our products to your attention: Cloud Storage Studio. Cloud Storage Studio, if you will, is like what Management Studio is for SQL Server. It's a WPF application which allows you to manage the data storaed in Windows Azure (Tables, Containers, and Queues).

Here are some of the high level features of Cloud Storage Studio (Currently in V0.3):

Currently it is in private beta and we are looking for some early adopters of this product. If you are interested in trying it out, please do let me know and I will send you the link from where you can download the application binaries. We also have an online version of the same available (Cloud Storage Studio/e) however I would recommend that you try Cloud Storage Studio for two reasons:
1. Cloud Storage Studio/e is currently not kept uptodate with the latest changes that have happened with Windows Azure Storage. For example you can't download, copy, move rename blobs using Cloud Storage Studio/e.
2. Current architecture of Cloud Storage Studio/e routes all the requests through our servers to Windows Azure. Although we don't store any account sensitive information on our site, you may be uncomfortable with this fact (a lot of people are in fact uncomfortable with that). Cloud Storage Studio, on the other hand communicates directly through storage services.

We are quite excited & encouraged by the feedback we have received so far. We are currently working on V0.4 of the application which will have support for Dev Fabric and major UX related enhancements.
